    Barefoot shoes

    I have been reading as much as I can about the new shoes, and I have found a few with high reviews. What I would like to know is who runs in/wears what? I have a bit of a positive bias toward VFFs, but I also liked how the merrils felt on my feet. Is there anyone who doesnt like the five fingers...

I am hoping you guys...

I am doing my best to practice ranging with a scope but all of my estimations change when the magnification changes and I cant find the relation. I guess what I am looking for would be like...
